Sad news. Apparent suicide at 63

I'm a bit undecided about the rise of "suicide isn't selfish" comments - try telling that to families of victims in the aftermath of such a tragedy.

"Why didn't he/she say something?" is the question asked the most by the those left behind.

I totally understand the "depression doesn't discriminate" line - that is why we must talk about any "lows" we get and seek medical/expert help.

Thing is Baker people must want to get help first.
Many are unaware of where to turn and some can even "expect" you to guess they arent in a good frame of mind.
This is why all sufferers must talk and be informed of where help/expertise is at.

If I became a Samaritan I would need counselling myself!!!

Robin Williams was found hanged after telling friends he had “serious money troubles” and had sought treatment for depression in the weeks before his death, it has emerged.
The 63-year-old actor, who was once reputed to be worth £75 million, had complained of losing a large chunk of his fortune in alimony payments to his two ex-wives, and had been trying to sell his 600-acre ranch in California to raise much-needed funds.

Seems ex wives and money were the main instigator.

Of course I can see the parallels, difference being is that I made the correct decision and that selfish tw*t didn't.

A bit less judgemental?

Sitting there for hours weighing up pro's & cons has actually made me more judgemental. Before my 'episode' I did have compassion for those that had enough, but now that I've 'been there & come through it', I am now of the opinion that they are selfish c*nts because I believe the act of suicide promotes mental health problems in others.


I suppose now I'm viewed as a bit like the ex-smoker prick that looks down his nose at smokers, but when you know the affects of suicide is much more far reaching than some bloke merely toking on a cancer stick you tend to get a different outlook on things. I believe suicide should bring about shame and be viewed with utter disdain from peers as opposed to lauding it up and saying "It's ok, he did it because he had issues". No. It's not f*cking ok. Mental illness CAN be treated — suicide should NOT be an option.

As regards that 15 year old lad, yeah I know the family quite well. I also know a lot of his mates families well too. Do you know what they are having to go through because of this lad? Their kids have been hit for six by what this lad did. They are confused teenagers who saw the (false as f*ck) adulation this lad had from all quarters for what he did and those parents are f*cking sh*tting themselves that their kids will follow suit to become some sort of local hero too. (I can understand how that Bridgend suicide thing came about now and as a parent it makes me f*cking sick)

Also, did you know his care-free little sister (aged 11) who is about to join the same comprehensive school as her bruv, now has mental issues* that would never have come about if it wasn't for her big brother?

*I'll PM you the details because they are too hardcore for a football board IMO

As I said earlier… Suicide — It's a c*nts trick.

Yeah I had a feeling you'd have known the lad involved. You may well know my sister.

Anyway, it's pointless labouring it. we're not going to agree on this so I'll bow out gracefully.

Genuinely glad that you managed to pull yourself round though.

His life was..Acting as a different person day to day.. quick witted thoughts.. and deep delusional thinking.. this combined with marriage break ups, money issues (which was his own fault).. drink and apparent drug addictions... all built up to a mass depression.. lots of actors suffer with it.. but with the money and specialist help.. it should be easier to get out of it.

Aye, fair enough.

Shame the NHS turned that M4 girl away this morning.

She asked for help but didn't get it.

Gonna be a hell of a shitstorm in Morriston for the next few months I wager.

She was turned away? As I heard it she did a runner from Morriston A&E straight onto the motorway. No idea which is true.

I heard off someone who is close to one of the consultants who was on this morning.

Even if she turned up worse for wear (not saying she did) it sounds like poor form.

Another 30+ lives affected today...

Wise up, love.

This smacks of panic to cover up his addictions.

The man is dead now, let him rest. No one will ever know whether he had Parkisnsons or not.
